Track Day
The first Saturday of May is set aside to watch our athletes at Black Forest Academy compete against athletes from American Department of Defense schools around Europe. Chris runs four events, including these 320 m hurdles. Here, Chris was competing with just these two students in this heat, and by the time the finish line rolled around he had just enough energy left to come out on top. Because BFA has so many residential students, it is really important to provide them with weekend activities which they enjoy, and sports is certainly a big part of life at our school. There is much more to sports than playing games, as the relationships which are formed between coaches and team members, and between the team members themselves, are very satisfying and helpful to the
students. So much of life can be made so much better with the injection of a good dose of self-discipline. And self-discipline is certainly the word for success in sports.
